Recently noticed the maps are out of date, altho I rarely use the inbuilt nav it would be nice to have the latest maps.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyone successfully updated their maps (Pcm software is v4.76 I think)? 2015 Gt4 Recently noticed the maps are out of date, altho I rarely use the inbuilt nav it would be nice to have the latest maps. Don't really want to go to an OPC, and not fussed about car play or similar upgrades, is there a usb/disc solution that's nice and easy? Anyone done theirs themselves.?

POST 2Original post

Plenty of experiences described (including mine) on boxa.net. A few options for non OPC map upgrades. Probably worth upgrading the hard drive to SSD at the same time.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ah great thanks for that wasn't aware of that forum will go have a read!
